"Major political events and the death of Attila the Hun
Called the Scourge of God by the Romans, Attila the Hun was King and General of the Hun empire from A.D. 433 to 453. Succeeding his Uncle, King Roas, in 433, Attila shared his throne with his brother Bleda. He inherited the Scythian hordes which were disorganized and weakened by internal strife. His first order of affairs was to unite his subjects for the purpose of creating one of the most formidable and feared armies Asia had ever seen.

In 434 East Roman Emperor Theodosius II offered Attila and his brother 660 pounds of gold annually with hopes of securing an everlasting peace with the Huns. This peace, however, was not long lived. In 441 Attila's Huns once again attacked the Eastern Roman Empire. The success of this invasion emboldened Attila to continue his westward expansion. Passing unhindered through Austria and Germany, Attila plundered and devastated all in his path.

Suffering a setback in 451, on the Plains of Chalons, by the allied Romans and Visigoths, Attila turned his attention to Italy. Interestingly enough, after having laid waste to Aquileia and many Lombard cities in 452, the Scourge of God was met by Pope Leo I and was dissuaded from sacking Rome.

His death in 453 wasn't quite what one would have expected from such a fierce barbarian warrior. He died not on the battlefield, but rather on the night of his marriage. On that night Attila, who, despite common misconceptions, was not a heavy drinker, drank heavily in celebration of his new bride. In his wedding chambers at the end of the event, Attila passed out flat on his back. It was then and there that Attila had a massive nosebleed which caused him to choke on his own blood."

"Zorak:
Everyone knows the story of Attilla the Hun, the barbaric conquerer who terrorized eastern and central Europe in the early fifth century. Now let's hear ... the rest of ... the story.
Attilla the Hun was originally known as Attilla the Clown. As a clown he entertained at many children's birthday parties and school carnivals. But one day, while performing a risky balloon animal trick, a little tiddler kicked Attilla really hard, right in the shins, causing him to swallow a huge amount of helium. "That's it," Attilla declared, "no more mister nice guy!" He changed his name to Attilla the Hun and the rest, as they say, is history. Now you know ... the rest of ... the story. Good day."

Sorry, just a tad random, I should explain, I watched a film about Attila, earlier in the week, I searched for some info on him earlier, Attila the clown was the first thing I found, thought I'd share that coincidence.  

*An eerie silence*

Back to topic,

Are you talking about loads of people logged on sharing silence, because if you are, I think it's a brilliant idea, make it a group meditation thing, or would that be too difficult to organise, would enough people be up for that?

Hi Superman

Well, I think that getting loads of people logged on sharing silence would be just as hard as getting loads of people logged on full stop.  I think we managed 14 at most on Saturday, lol!!

Too difficult to organise? - I think so!

Hi ho.
